My
name is Dan. I am ressearching
an essay I am writing on sex,
sexuality and sexism in the
music industry throughout the
years. If you have any information
on the subject I would be eternaly
grateful. Thank you very much
for your time and keep fighting
as one day true equality will
exist.

Thanks
for your note to Feminist.com.
For "sexism in the music industry,"
hmm....I know that Ms.
Magazine has done a few
articles on this, including
some by Evelyn MacDonald who
also wrote a book something
to the effect of "Women in Rock".
A few years ago, I also remember
Sony presenting a panel on sexism
in the music industry. I remember
that the Indigo Girls were on
the panel. Besides that my mind
draws a blank. I also know that
this summer the Indigo Girls
and others organized a tour,
"The Suffragists", which included
all women bands not just women
vocalists. I think it was in
response to women being promoted
as the vocalists, but rarely
as the musicians or the lyricists
and definitely not the executives.
